Would you like to know the story behind that wonderful work of art that keeps you up all night?
Do you wonder why a very annoying character never faces an unfortunate accident?
Or why some scenes happened the way...
Red: I’m doing good. Shall we get started on the interview?
Yaya: Yes absolutely.
Red: Awesome. So you’re the author of the book Crowned. . .
Can I just say, I am in love with your cover😍
Did you make it yourself?
Yaya: I am, I am. Thank you😍, I did do it myself. It took me a couple hours and a lot of filters.
Red: That’s pretty dope👍 What was the inspiration behind it?
Yaya: I wanted a beautiful crown to symbolize who Natania will become. Both in beauty and status.
Red: I see. . .🤔 Before we get into your characters can you tell us briefly what your book is about?
Yaya: It’s about the journey a young princess takes before she takes on the duty she’s been prepared for her entire life. She’s hoping to find herself and enjoy freedom before she becomes a queen.
But also we will see farther ahead into her new responsibilities and all of the expected and unexpected events that will happen and shape her life.
Red: That’s interesting.😎 What was the inspiration behind your story?
Yaya: So, I fell in love with a show a while ago called Reign and ever since I watched it I became fascinated with kings and queens and so many of the responsibilities that the title comes with.
I’m also a huge hopeless romantic. So naturally I wanted to throw a twist into the plot and make things interesting.
But honestly, I’m constantly inspired by people I meet and emotions I’ve felt or the people around me. It’s usually what I use to convey the emotions my characters are feeling.
Red: Wait the TV show about Francis the King of France and the Queen of Scotland?
Yaya: Yes! Mary Queen of Scots and Francis, the King of France. But yes that show was amazing. In my opinion anyways😁
